NOTE 20. BUSINESS SEGMENTS

During the fourth quarter of 2025, the Company realigned its reportable segments to better reflect the continued integration of its operating model. Giving effect to the realignment, the Company operates through two reportable segments: Protein Solutions and Prepared Food and Beverage Solutions. The Company defines its segments based on which internally reported financial information is regularly reviewed by the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM) to analyze financial performance, make decisions and allocate resources. Prior year segment information has been recast in these financial statements to conform to current year presentation.

The Protein Solutions segment includes businesses that provide solutions for initial stage processing and harvesting of animal proteins, primarily focusing on poultry, pork, fish, and beef.

The Prepared Food and Beverage Solutions segment includes businesses that offer solutions predominantly for downstream value-added preparation, preservation, and packaging of foods and beverages into ready to eat or drink products. This segment will also include capabilities for pet food, dairy, bakery, pharmaceutical and nutraceutical, and warehouse automation end markets.

The Company's Chief Executive Officer is the CODM, who assesses the segments’ performance using each segment’s Adjusted EBITDA. The CODM is not regularly provided with and does not evaluate the segments by using each segment’s total assets and therefore, each segment’s total assets are not disclosed.

About Segments Disclosures

Segment disclosures break a company into its reportable operating units, revealing revenue, profit, and asset allocation that consolidated financial statements obscure. Under ASC 280, segments must match how the chief operating decision maker views the business, providing a window into internal management structure and resource allocation priorities.

Key signals: compare segment margins to identify which units drive profitability and which destroy value. Watch for changes in the number of reportable segments — segment aggregation or disaggregation often coincides with strategic shifts or attempts to obscure declining performance. Intersegment elimination patterns reveal internal pricing practices. The reconciliation between segment totals and consolidated figures exposes corporate overhead allocation and unallocated items. Geographic revenue concentration highlights regulatory and currency exposure. Compare segment-level capital expenditure against segment revenue to assess where management is investing for future growth versus harvesting existing assets.
